Whats up everybody? My name is Eric. I live in Augusta Ga but I always go up to Atlanta b/c my brother goes to Ga Tech. I just bought a 2000 Celica GTS sportshift. My parents gave it to me for a graduation gift. I am 18 and a Senior. I just wanted to say hello and I plan on doing a lot to my car, I just need to save up some. Thanks!

Well Im gonna try to get up to the A-T-L this weekend to meet up with ya'll. Is that indoor kart track kinda near the Road Atlnta track? I went to Road Atlanta with my uncle( He has a BAD A$$ 93 Supra Twin Turbo) last october. That was sooo cool. Well if you guys ever wanna come to Augusta some weekend it only about 2 hrs away. Its funny on Friday nights because Washington Rd( The main road in Augusta) is filled with all the honda boys and Acuras, and even a hilarious Chevvy Cavalier. Most of them park their cars at Sonic and hang out their all night so when I drive by I drop it from 4th to 2nd(I have a sportshift auto) and punch the gas to see them all look up. Well Ill talk to you later. Late!

There are directions to Speed Lab on the "I'm back and its snowing thread" from 2kgtx. It is much closer to Atlanta than Road Atlanta. The shop that I work at is right at Road Atlanta. Does your uncle do lapping days or SCCA or something? I work at Panoz Motorsports if you have heard of it. Our shop is the building on the right as you are going in the main gate. Gainesville is like that too. All the rednecks and the ricers all cruise the strip, which probably isn't even a quarter mile long. You can't drive through there without some dork in a honda trying to race you.

Welcome to the boards. I might be able to go to the driving school if I have any money. My tv and dvd both stopped working on the same day and I have to buy books for school.

I need everyones help I really want to go to the driving school but my tires are starting to show wear and I don't want to put new tires on these rims and get some new rims sometime this spring or summer. My question is do you think that I can make it through the driving school and not put to much wear on my tires?
Also do I need to e-mail that guy that you posted about cody to get in the class or do I need to e-mail someone else.

They should be fine. I think they'll have you driving pretty slow since they're trying to teach you. Just don't lock up the brakes like I did. A flatspot will kill your tires.

yeah cbr600drm(by the way whats your name?) my uncle lives in Birmingham, AL. He is a member of SCCA. Its cool because he was just nammed some Race Director or something really important of Southeast events. He is going to be the coordinator of Road Atlanta not this year but next, so Im gonna get him to hook me up with a tight job working there. He is actually running his Supra next weekend at Road Atlanta with the Porsche club I think. I have heard of Panoz racing. Those things are freakin LOUD!!!! You could tell when they were comming at the race. Well Ill look at a map and try to get up to Atlanta this weekend. See ya!

Oh sorry. My name is Duncan. I'm going to copy Barry and put it in my sig cause I always forget. I'll keap an eye out for a twin turbo supra this weekend. I didn't know they were racing next weekend. Yeah, our cars are the only ones in our series with a nice big 6.0 liter NA V8. When our cars are the only ones on the track for testing and stuff you can listen and tell where they are on the track just by the rumble of the engines. Talk to you later.
